Mangers, it was a busy Thanksgiving and Christmas month and we can thank the Lord for our many blessings.  Sometimes life does not seem so fair but we really are blessed, each and every one of us, for living in a great country and being able to play the game we all love.  I want to emphasize the word 'game.'  On occasion one of our Players forgets that it is only a game.  You can put it in perspective by telling your Players that we sometimes travel far and spend a good bit of money for an $8 tee shirt. Remember, it is SOFTBALL, not life itself.
